finally!!!!!!!!the site is back, lots has happened since its been down, lets see........well went to mexico for a week to visit my brother a week in paradise is always good for ones personal constituition, many stories mostly tequila related, did alot of playing and writing down there, played with a few bands hit an open mic nite there at a place called the 180 which happened to owned by some canadians, i tried out some new material and played a bunch of covers, which went pretty well, at the end of the evening the woman who owns the place approached me and asked me if i wanted to play on the malecon the following night(malecon is the boardwalk shops etc) cause the guy who was hosting the jam was not availible, so i said what the hell turned up the next night they had a stage set up 4 numerous acts and i was one of them, it was great !!playing out to the ocean as all these sun baked tourists passed by it was pretty cool, i do have some photos of this and once i learn how to get them up they will be up, its hard to leave a place like mexico your mind is so free there stress is non existant and life is very clear , the weather was perfect 85 and sunny every day , beer and smokes were very cheap i took full advantage of these luxuries.

we need to to get into the studio soon again as we have some songs that really need to be recorded some of which we played at the mod club which was our best show to date the sound and lights were fantastic and we all took away a pretty good buzz from that night, we look forward to our next show there on may 8th.

anybody heard of the drink "bullets" its straight up tanqueray on ice, can be lethal if taken in large amounts mixed in with guiness which is exactly what i was doing on st pattys in bed by 11 that night one foot on the floor one hand on the wall, but good times were had nevertheless right so im back on the journal train bye bye
